Found the EP songs on YouTube. Still searching for "Over Coral Island" which was the bonus track given away to people who purchased the Over Coral Island book.

Think this is true now that I've had a good listen. I love that The Coral are so ambitious about making albums in a way few bands are anymore. I love that this album wears all its influences on its sleeve like ghosts, but also takes you somewhere you haven't been. Cool stuff.

Such a good record, think part 2 is my favorite, always prefered their slightly darker side. So many good tunes. Just finished the book as well, which has made the whole experience better for me. Feel very immersed in coral island and think i'll be spending a lot of time there over then next few months.

Can’t wait for Coral Island the movie. Joking.

What you gals and guys think of my coral playlist? These are my faves and think it flows quite well.. wanted to not have two tracks back to back from the same album, but couldn't leave out the transition between come home and far from the crowd. Any suggestions for tracks you really like that I've missed off this extensive list 😂 don't really know the b sides and bonus tracks so could be missing a few treats

Great to get a remastered version of this classic.
Far to many vinyl choices for a collector like me though! Overwhelmed with the different variants.

Its a band i have always wanted to like, but never really have
That said, the review of 60s western music that is one of the two new albums is getting me a bit h##ard.

Use the EPs tracks please.

Use the EPs tracks please. Agree 100% Unfortunately both of these new albums have more spoken word sections! The Coral Island radio show one especially… 1. Holy Joe (Sounds From The Other Side)2. The Sinner 3. Hotel 4. Holy Joe (Hitchhiker At The Highway's Edge)5. Affiliation 6. Leave This Town 7. The Road Is Calling 8. Holy Joe (Rita Is Having A Bad One)9. Never Be In Love Like That Again 10. Drifter's Prayer 11. Holy Joe (Bobby And Faith)12. Long Drive To The City 13. Down By The Riverside 14. Holy Joe (The Graveyard Shift)15. Baby Face Nelson 16. Holy Joe (A Wise Man Once Said)17. The Coral Island Killer 18. Holy Joe (Let The Credits Roll)Suspect I’ll be playlisting this with the interludes removed like I did with Coral Island… 📻
